Workflow goals
goals indeed!!!!!
The reason I study this man's vids
Right!
FRIGUS nah man, I’m not even close to this skill level but even I can play off the top like this without “rehearsing”. For me tho, I only know guitar and also making drum beats with a midi controller. It’s called Scales. Once you know scales, you can play off the top for hours and it will sound good. Even if this specific video was rehearsed I can guarantee that he can do the same thing off the top. It’s okay buddy, I’m sure you have talents too👍😂
🤣🤣🤣 sharing and stealing your caption. Perfect! 😵💫
He should do masterclasses, that would be hugely inspiring.
He would have my money before he could play another fukin note
@@raphaelgordh8251 LMFAOOOOOOOO
Always funny how "inspiring" is missused 😂
unless he has teaching experience, you're better off just taking his songs to a teacher and having them teach you what he does lol. Most people who are gifted at something are not good at teaching ...
@@nathanmantle377 "so hum, this is a major chord hum...anyway here's Tadow"
so what the hell was the secret?? everybody knew he was talented af
Shorts Andy il a un métronome qui lui tourne dans l'oreil pour garder le bon tempo
He has a metronome in his ear to keep the good rythm
That's not talent thats skill.
Hij heeft een metronome in zijn oor om de juiste rythme te houden
He's really talented and skillful...
This guy has music in his blood, he was made for this and he found his true path in life so early on. His future is very bright!
you sound like yoda. i like you.
he's in the future
@@manutai9452 I'm sure most mainstream music from the 2030-2040s will sound like FKJ mixtapes
He's 32 lol
an improvisation during an interview with this guy contains more and much better music than 90% of the music market
I've never had someone that truly inspired me so much as FKJ does. This guys is just absolutely amazing - now I have to practice even more! Lets go.
I've just realized that even him speaking french was a part of the entire song. so natural. genius.
The secret is to learn to play multiple instruments and the theory behind them, then prepare ahead for when Trax Magazine pulls up up in yo neighbourhood.
lmao
he does mostly improvise. he has certain effects ready to go but as far as music theory he knows that then just creates a smooth groove.
he never learnt music theory actually. but he "understands music"
@@manutai9452 damn how
Tadow was made here
DEYDEYY
Red bull studios
Dadaaayyyy
What a tune
RudeyBoy794 😂❤️
the industry needs more people like FKJ, he is the real thing
I'm really impressed about how he seems to fully know what he's doing and what he'll do next... He has definetly mastered his craft and cannot wait to hear more of his tunes. Respect!
FKJ is a fucking musician ! So talented
The secret technique of FKJ : Skill
I think this proves music is a universal language.
The man spent a lot of time on his own, respect on the work and talent.
This guy is not human. Such a genius.
Crew: so how much equipment are we going to need
FKJ: yes
all of it
🤣
His timing is so perfect... to get this straight is actually very hard!
These machines have quantization features
everything he plays gets quantized tho. That does not mean he is not a great musician, his composition skills are awesome.
@@Mlmmm Just based on your verbiage I can tell you have no understanding of what it takes to create something like this and make it sound so fluid. This is also an improv during an interview bro, no one else can do this literally no one.
@@romecensullo4006i can and im coming in to conquer my country’s music scene now
So much tech talent,& music skills.....PRINCE did this...back around 1977, on his first album...he played everything!
Prince and many others,Stevie Wonder,Bowie,Mike Oldfield, Hancock,...
HIs style has Chicago influences and that jazz vibe just brings it full circle
Favorite producer!
this is so amazing and his album is amazing and fkj is amazing!!
hes so fkn good. wish more people were exposed to this and how amazing this is. this guy is playing a full band, mixing, producing, editing, all at the same time by himself. its phenomenal.
His secret is being born with insane musical talent and swag.
You're killing me brah....so dope!!!!
i like how he leaves the cpu on the floor, out of view. keep in the groove, no distractions
la collaboration avec lui et Masego est le meilleur! enregistrements live sont mon favorite!
Ran into FKJ through Alina Baraz, now Tom Misch and Masego. I will never go back. I play these artists music in my car more than anyone else. 😁
I love this man!!! Such music 🎶 that is inside him. He’s insane!!!
Makes it look effortless...this man is a genius
goes so much more in depth in person. un vrai plaisir de travailler avec❤️
l'ingéniosité et le talent réuni
..une vraie beauté ta musique
The secret? Practice, practice and practice. Knowing you equipment to the most tiny detail. Sure, predisposition and 'talent' helps, but that level of skill is only created with practice.
Je pense que tu es absolument génial et que tes styles éclectiques ne sont que génie !!! Même si vous utilisez la technologie, mais à la fin, vous savez utiliser tous les instruments, ce qui est extraordinaire! à votre santé!✌👍🎶🎵🎼
so great, the creativity is great , the arrangement is amazing
Nice approach. Very straightforward, intuitive, improvised and musical!
What I wanna know is how the hell it makes it sound so good on the fly. What effects templates? Takes a huge mixing effort to make stuff sound like this.
Thats what I'm asking myself all the time!
Thanks FKJ. Hard times for everyone and you make us feel humans with your music.
to everyone who is doing homework, leave the chat, breathe slowly, take a sip of water, and focus
to everyone who is trying to sleep, leave the chat, grab a blanket, and get the rest you deserve.
to everyone who is feeling sad, grab a snack, get some water, get a blanket, and write down your thoughts. when you're done, lay down, and get some rest, no matter the time.
to everyone who is drawing, you got this. you're art is amazing. keep your head up (or down, depends on where your paper is) and remember that you matter.
i love you all
SUPER talented! Always impressed by you're perfomances FKJ. Huge inspiration
Every piece of music you create is AMAZING. Please can you make a full version of this song?
his workflow is like a physical DAW, that's 10x more complicated to me than using PC, props to him
What works for him doesn't have to work for you and what works for you doesn't have to work for him 🤷🏽♂️.
@@andygarcia2778 no shit
Exceptional musicianship + modern technology = FKJ!!!
Your work and talent is amazing
OMG he is so talented!!! I really admire his music ❤️🤩
hes a damn gift to this earth!
love ur music
he is one of my favorite artists
Juste énorme! Bonne continuation!
1:12 thank god that lamp didn't fall
hahah
it was part of the beat. He probably recorded it too
@José Tobias for real, that's a natural musician, even his mistakes are on time lol
No doubt he would've sampled it haha
this guy reach level of "thats creepy nigga"
No, the secret is actually “love what you do and do what you love “
Excellent, et le studio assure tout autant !
Loving his skills, he was born with all that Talent!!
Killing it !
True artist!!!
Absolutely great!
quel talent! combien d'artistes peuvent se vanter de pouvoir jouer tant d'instruments et surtout obtenir ce résultat!
All this video did was change FKJ's music from magic to raw talent, a shit ton of learning, and hard work.
I can make beats,,but not like this damn I feel like a noob.
Same here.
Yes you can.
oh yeah I feel like everything I know is childish stuff
Hey its not about having all that instrumentation. Some of the greatest stuff was made with a simple sampler. Its about the groove and creativity.
@@norakat J Dilla
Pure magic. My favourite musician by far atm.
Amazing, pure creativity!
Thank you RUclips closed captioning so I could understand what he was saying.
I wish he and GRiZ would work together. They"d make magic
Tellement fatttttt!!!!! Grand respect à toi monsieur l'homme orchestre. 😀 Si jamais tu peux le sortir ce son je suis plus que preneur pour le faire tourner dans ma caisse. 😎
The chords at the end are so beautiful god damn!
Please someone tell me the song at the very beginning of the video!
I swear FKJ is my role model
Always a pleasure to listen to his art❤
how is he so good at like 10 instruments, absolutely insane
Please dont tell me he improvised that whole thing!
Well.. He improvised that whole thing...
He does all the time.
No he didn't !! He knew what he's gonna do !!
He also completely improvised his biggest hit
its called music
The secret technique is to be a professional musician. Thanks red bull for the insight! Love fkj
All i see here is that hard work along with daily practice equals perfection
Sou apaixonada nessa cantor ❤️😍
He shits on every producer out today.
but zaytoven and scott storch are pretty fire
He definitely 100% for sure doesn't, but okay you have fun with that opinion.
i like his energy tho lol but theres a difference between a producer and a person that loops their music. this is a jam/live performance kinda like a dj uses filter and effects to transition between songs hes using it to transition the live jam along. producers are cut from different cloth
@@BryWMac its not about looping. its about the difference between a live performance and production
Ohh my got😊😍🍀🙌
Chapeau, tu es un champion du loop.
Holy crap that was way too awesome. What a workflow.
why are none of the clips on the apc40 lit up? i'd like him to explain his clip recording/looping process in further detail.
i think he uses the looper plugin instead of tracks. cool thing about it is, you can set a fixed length like 4 bars or smt so you dont have to press the button again to stop the recording

Bravo à toi👏👏👏 franchement je t'admire de ouf j'adore 🥰🥰🥰
Tash Sultana + FKJ collab
U KIND OF GENIUS
Oh god, pls no.
I can die from it !
I've been thinking about it too
Omg yes
Can somebody, ANYBODY, tell me how he has Ableton set to record a certain amount of bars and play it back directly after? I've tried Looper but i've had no luck. I'm sure it's some switch in Ableton that simply needs to be activated i just need help. 😅
He's using a Looper for each track (you can assign fixed bars for the Looper device). However, I find the Looper effect quite limiting, so I've created a Max device that allows fixed bar clips. Have fun! www.maxforlive.com/library/device/4490/clip-length
Yo Ceejay you still trying to sort this? I think i've had a bit of luck with looper! hit me up and we can share tips
What I know about looping live on ableton using midi.
1. create an empty midi clip in a track and define its length, lets say 2 bars.
2. If the track is armed and your instrument is connected, turn on Automation.
3. Now if you play, midi notes will be recorded instantly and played back too. Automation will enable you to rewrite over the clip as much as you wish but if you do a mistake you have to undo that part.
hey man is there any way you could update this and add an 8 bar option to this? am using it with an apc40 and love it but wish i could record longer loops
I had the same question for months until i figured out that the ONLY EASY way to do it is with Push, the Ableton midi controller, if you want to record and play a loop on the go, FKJ style, you have to use Push's "fixed lenght" feature, otherwise you have to do it like the guys in the other comments said, create the clip, set the lenght and so on, but you have to do this before playing and cuts your workflow, only with push you can achieve it smoothly... although it cost a bunch of money :/
But trust me its worth it, specially if you are into live performing, or just to jam to your own loops with little-to-no effort. Hope this helped.
young & gifted!!!
Wonderful!
what i learnt from this video is that i have to be rich enough to have all those equipment, and a sophisticated french language...and dreadlocks.
please show us your talents in a video renting just 20 mn those equipment =)
You need to learn how to play an/ instrument/s and some//,, some'' music theory. Yes, you can skip learning instruments, ( but you re gonna miss a lot of the feelings from this thing called music ) and learn some music theory, get a DAW ( ableton, cubase, fruity loops etc ), Vst s ( virtual instruments ) and be you! Good luck
Well, the most expensive thing here is the Rhodes and you can easily find a plug in, the apc and the maschine are cheap so...
Andrew Atkins is a BITCH
It’s people like you that are actually one of the two so Ha, Might as we’ll throw a “@“ at yourself dip shit.
i dont speak french and the stuff it says sounds so good with everything else. like a spoken background vocal noise
So much talent! Tres bien =)
Amazing🥺
Genius
where does he plug the instruments? AND HOW DOES HE RECORD THEM AUTOMATICLLY??
Hey! So he plugs instruments into an interface, then each instrument is assigned a channel on abelton, which is controlled by his APC 40. Im still trying to figure out the his looping magic...
yeah he uses some real expensive one, you can find his gear on this site equipboard.com/pros/fkj
i do similar work, but cant afford such a high end interface. I use the Allan And Heath Zedi100 which is great because its mixer/interface combo. Let me know if you have any other questions!
Dude i've watched almost every video he has multiple times to try and figure out how it sets it to loop a set amount of bars without using a pedal and i've had no luck. It seems like it must be something very simple and i know Ableton can do it i just haven't figured it out. :(
I dont know exactly what he does, but I think that he assign a looper on each track in ableton and uses the akai apc 40 mkII to switch between the different track. If someone knows exactly how he works?
i think he plugs in a footswitch to the APC40 that triggers the record function on the loop! ive watched all the videos as well, and haven't found one that shows his damn feet. There is one really cool one where he does a live performance in Paris, but the floor only shows his effects pedal...
we will figure this out! I just got an APC40 so im hoping I can piece this together! good luck yall
Synchronicité harmonique d'un homme très talentueux. Je suis tombé sur cela par You-Tube, et j'écoute depuis des semaines. Magnifique! p.s. Écoute de Cape Coral, Floride, États-Unis Merci! Jason :)
It's not a secret anymore when on YT.
You my hero man :)
His secret is that he's talented af
